So, I spent 12 years in Catholic school — Grades 1-8 in a super conservative, pro-corporal punishment school — and no way did we chant “to college and heaven.” Catholic schools usually provide a very good, no frills education. I was certainly taught evolution, etc., etc. Florida Catholic schools must be super scary.

I volunteered at rabbit rescue center for a few years. Bunnies are fucking vicious.

This was my question.

In my experience, HR people are incompetent and mean. This story totally backs that up. In addition, why is tech so terrible for women? (Rhetorical question.) You would think by now the industry would have its act somewhat together.

I’m a college professor. We are freaked out and obsessed as well.

Why does everyone in the White House look like either vampires or snack food?

Also, if they are grown in California, they use too much water and we are still in a drought over here.

Poor Abe just wanted his hand back.

I guess the long pointy chin explains the crazy cravat fashion.

So, a progressive veterans group placed this ad on Morning Joe.

I think we are headed for a constitutional crisis, one way or another.

I have a number of friends who are now retired (former officers). They were all freaked out by Trump and viewed him as incredibly dangerous. I don’t know how enlisted people feel.

It’s as if he doesn’t even know that slavery was an actual thing. Not that it was horrible, immoral, brutal, violent, degrading, dehumanizing, and at the root of many of our current social problems. No, it’s as if he doesn’t know that slavery happened.

That’s my favorite one, too.

That worked really well for JFK and the Bay of Pigs, but that was when reality ruled.

As I recall, those states went for him.

Alice Paul and the National Woman’s Party members who picketed the White House to put pressure on Congress to move on the 19th Amendment were arrested on charges of obstructing traffic and jailed for days, weeks, months. In some ways, I despair of this country ever making real progress.

Sad.
